On the embankment of core material at the Rockfill dam, in case that it is difficult near the damsite to obtain the core material which has the good character, core materials has been improved. Here I have investigated and analyzed about the improvement method of core materials of rockfill dams which has been ever constructed. As a result, I've recognized that the mixing character of the blended materials was affected by the difference between the physical characteristics of water content, grading, and plasticity of the fine grained materials and coarse grained materials. And it is clear that, in order to obtain the good blending condition, the agitation way depends on the physical characteristics. Moreover, I've reffered to the quick quality control way to prevent from the quality reduction with accompanied by the bad mixing materials.
